This thread title once had some information on link-belts like Accu-link, but multiple searches does not pull it up. Can anyone point the way to sizing a link belt to replace (temporarily) a Dayco Top Cog 15355?
Thanks,
Merrill
The last three digits are the belts diameter in millimeters. Most belts have this number in them somewhere, usually the last three digits. You want a 1/2" wide link belt. They come in 3/8, 1/2 and 5/8. Be sure you have enough travel in the alt bracket, as most link belts are adjusted in increments greater than 3/4"

BTW, here's a good document on assembling the accu-link belt (Harbor Freight sells a 1/2" one for $35 or so):

Installed direction appears to matter. It looks like the tab points away from running direction.
